 ## Properties
 
+### `process.defaultApp`
+
+A `Boolean`. When app is started by being passed as parameter to the default app, this
+property is `true` in the main process, otherwise it is `undefined`.
+
+### `process.mas`
+
+A `Boolean`. For Mac App Store build, this property is `true`, for other builds it is
+`undefined`.
+
 ### `process.noAsar`
 
 A `Boolean` that controls ASAR support inside your application. Setting this to `true`
 will disable the support for `asar` archives in Node's built-in modules.
 
-### `process.type`
+### `process.noDeprecation`
 
-A `String` representing the current process's type, can be `"browser"` (i.e. main process) or `"renderer"`.
+A `Boolean` that controls whether or not deprecation warnings are printed to `stderr`.  
+Setting this to `true` will silence deprecation warnings.  This property is used
+instead of the `--no-deprecation` command line flag.
 
-### `process.versions.electron`
+### `process.resourcesPath`
 
-A `String` representing Electron's version string.
+A `String` representing the path to the resources directory.
 
-### `process.versions.chrome`
+### `process.throwDeprecation`
 
-A `String` representing Chrome's version string.
+A `Boolean` that controls whether or not deprecation warnings will be thrown as
+exceptions.  Setting this to `true` will throw errors for deprecations.  This
+property is used instead of the `--throw-deprecation` command line flag.
 
-### `process.resourcesPath`
+### `process.traceDeprecation`
 
-A `String` representing the path to the resources directory.
+A `Boolean` that controls whether or not deprecations printed to `stderr` include
+ their stack trace.  Setting this to `true` will print  stack traces for deprecations.
+   This property is instead of the `--trace-deprecation` command line flag.
 
-### `process.mas`
+### `process.traceProcessWarnings`
+A `Boolean` that controls whether or not process warnings printed to `stderr` include
+ their stack trace.  Setting this to `true` will print stack traces for process warnings
+  (including deprecations).  This property is instead of the `--trace-warnings` command
+  line flag.
